Specifications include, but are not limited to:. A. The Sodium Chloride Type 1, Grade 1, will meet the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet, Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction, Edition of 2008, Section 825. B. Deliver the sodium chloride in a free-flowing, usable condition, free from lumps and foreign material. Product that does not meet specified conditions at the time of the delivery will not be accepted and will be removed by the Vendor at no cost to the BTRC. C. Provide Sodium Chloride with a moisture content that will not exceed two percent (2.0%). Treat the Sodium Chloride with an anti-caking agent to prevent caking or freezing when in storage. IV. SAMPLING, TESTING, AND COMPLIANCE A. Sampling as delivered will not be required, however, the BTRC reserves the right to take random samples and test any material when delivered to the designated delivery point. The BTRC also reserves the right, at its discretion, to sample and test any material at the terminal site or from the barge site prior to being loaded onto trucks. B. When the BTRC chooses to take random samples and the samples fail to meet the specified conditions, the BTRC may require the removal of the material by the Vendor at no cost to the BTRC. When weather conditions dictate that material, which does not meet, specified conditions must be used, or when otherwise it is in the best interest of the BTRC to use the material, it may be accepted at a reduction in the contract bid price. C. Such reduction will be between five percent (5.0%) and fifty percent (50.0%) depending on the degree of noncompliance as determined by the BTRC in consultation with the respective County Road Department personnel.
